2008 125 SXAnybody who’s looking for an extremely light and agile two-stroke cross bike that’s got so much power it makes even four-strokes eat its dust… can stop looking! And the 125 SX shows its MX2 competitors the ropes on more than the racecourse. An optimised chassis, fierce from the first second all the way to the finish line – the ultimate small two-stroke that can totally take on the big guys.
